Funny idle after revving...
Alright, I got my car out of storage yesterday (85 -se, FINALLY!) And I started it up and warmed it all the way up. Went out and drove around for awhile, and noticed a problem.
I just bought this car last fall, and the owner babied the heck out of it, never redlined it, always shifted around 3K rpm. When I do start revving it higher, it revs up great, but then I put the clutch in, and one of two things happens...
1st it starts idleing at 1.5K-2K rpm
2nd it just starts blubing and idles between 1k and 1.5K jumping between them.
After cruising around for a minute or two keeping the rpms down, it goes back too a 800rpm idle, and everything is fine.
This problem seems to start when the enigine goes above 4-5K
I don't know alot about cars, but if I had to guess I would say the secondary injectors are dirty or messed up, and when they kick on it makes it idle funny until the engine burns off the crap that was injected.
Even if thats the case I don't know where injectors are, or how to take them out or clean them.
Any ideas?
